Hiv from a shower head

All,

I am going crazy. I just went to a private sex worker and she asked me to go for a shower. Unfortunately the shower head hit me on top of my eye. Since I was showering I did not notice any blood. Just wondering if someone else got hit by it and if the shower head had blood and it cut me am I at any risk. I am not sure when the shower was last used.

Thanks.

You have been around long enough to know what is/is not a risk for HIV, and that this does not constitute a risk.  For your reference:

The only risks for HIV in adults are:
1) having unprotected, penetrative anal or vaginal sex, or
2) sharing intravenous needles.

Nothing else you can think of is a risk for HIV.
